Local pay as you go SIM cards with data

As previously mentioned I am thoroughly addicted to my iPhone. This manifests itself especially when abroad. During trips the need for information about transport, places and activities is even greater then usual. Unfortunately this greater need is efficiently suppressed by extreme roaming costs, that is, unless you get a local pay as you go SIM card with decent data rates.

Finding good rates abroad is usually tricky if you don't know the local market and/or language. Scanning through various mobile phone forums can sometimes help but it is time consuming and stale information is commonplace.

To help resolve this issue I have put together a small wiki with information about sensible pay as you go data plans divided up by country. So far there's only information about UK, US and Sweden in there but I welcome everyone to add more.
